It was supposed to be a vacation. I’ve always wanted to go to Scotland, and when I win my dream vacation, I have nothing but high hopes for the trip. Then I get turned around, and when I stop to ask for directions, I’m led to this castle and entered into some kind of Queen ceremony. I’m trying to stay positive. I’ll just explain that I would make a terrible Queen and get back to my vacation. Then I meet King Ryker. I was supposed to find my fated mate. The mating ceremony is a century old, which is the only reason I’m going along with it. I don’t have high hopes for meeting my fated mate, and I’m right. My wolf doesn’t react to any of the women brought in. The only person of interest is Malia. She wants to leave, but it’s not safe for her in town, not alone, so I convince her to stay for the week and help me find my Queen. Then I’ll pay for her vacation and a flight home. I don’t expect to start to fall for the curvy girl with a heart of gold. I’m only supposed to fall for my fated mate, and Malia isn’t her… or is she?

The Riddle of Barack Obama
Author: Avner Falk
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 0313385882
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 359
Book Description
An internationally noted clinical psychologist offers readers the first psychological biography of Barack Obama. The Riddle of Barack Obama: A Psychobiography is the first complete psychological biography of President Barack Obama written by a professional clinical psychologist. Covering Obama's life to date, as well as the lives of his parents, grandparents, and other ancestors, this fascinating volume illuminates the personal, professional, political, emotional, intellectual, and creative aspects of Obama's personality, as well as the motives—conscious and unconscious—for his beliefs and actions. Dr. Avner Falk draws on hundreds of biographies, newspaper and magazine articles, interviews, investigative reports, and more, using psychoanalytic models developed by Sigmund Freud, Donald Winnicott, Peter Blos, Heinz Kohut, and Schiffer to probe Obama's psychological development. Examining every facet of the president's biography, he delves into his earliest feelings of abandonment and helplessness, his inner conflicts, his protective relationship with his mother, his ambivalent identification with his father, and his quest for identity. Perhaps most intriguingly, Dr. Falk explores the psychological origins of Obama's "fierce ambitions" and the ingredients of his charisma.

Melchior À La Carte
Author: Ib Melchior
Publisher: Open Road Media
ISBN: 149764271X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
With a life as wild as his fiction, the award-winning sci-fi screenwriter and novelist serves up an “addictive” anthology of short stories (Andrew Kaplan, author of the Homeland novels). A larger-than-life character before picking up the pen, Ib Melchior fought the Nazis as a counterintelligence officer and decoded Shakespeare’s tomb. He was an actor in Paris and a Nordic student of Viking history. He honed his craft at the dawn of television’s “golden age” in the 1950s, imagining the realms beyond as a writer and director of some of the most memorable science-fiction cult films of the 1960s, including Robinson Crusoe on Mars and The Time Travelers. In this rich volume, Melchior draws on all these life experiences to deliver a literary epicurean’s smorgasbord of short fiction—historical, speculative, and visionary. One story explores a woman’s reawakening in post-war Europe; others investigate the war zones of Iraq; expose the backstage havoc of a television quiz show; and cover the life-and-death challenge in a dystopian future—and more. Melchior serves up an addendum of “desserts” in which he reveals the inspiration for each story, from the debatable identity of the Bard, to a Gestapo dog, to Hans Christian Andersen. Featuring twenty-one stories in all, Melchior À La Carte “is more than a potpourri of delicacies—it is a feast of literary delights, reminiscent of the tales told by those master storytellers, Conrad and Maugham. In short . . . Melchior’s book is a must have” (S. L. Stebel, author of Spring Thaw). “The Racer,” featured in this collection, was adapted twice for film as Death Race 2000 and Death Race. “An extraordinary storyteller . . . always provocative and wise, as he lays out the stuff of which dreams are made.” —Mann Rubin, screenwriter of The Best of Everythin
